Women's and Gender Studies

Women's and Gender Studies is an interdisciplinary program that investigates power from critical gender perspectives on social, cultural, economic, and political issues. Drawing on a substantial body of scholarship that challenges many of the assumptions and methods of traditional academic disciplines, Women's and Gender Studies creates new perspectives from which all students may analyze such issues as work, health, sexuality, violence, family, race, class, and ethnicity. The curriculum of the Minor, Major, and Honours in Women's and Gender Studies includes core courses in Women's and Gender Studies and elective courses in the following Departments or Programs: Anthropology, Canadian Studies, Classics, Drama, English, Fine Arts, Geography and Environment, History, International Relations, Modern Languages and Literatures, Music, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Religious Studies, and Sociology. The core courses provide an introduction to the principles of Women's and Gender Studies as well as a more advanced study of the theoretical and methodological approaches of feminism.

Finally, this course addresses current efforts to create a more inclusive scientific community. (Format: Lecture 3 Hours) (Exclusions: WGST 3991 Gender & Science)
